Description
Book Introduction
When you can communicate, the quality of your trip changes.
If you want to experience a different kind of Japan travel,
Enjoy your trip to Japan 200% by interacting with locals!


Some people say that you can travel without knowing Japanese.
They say that if you use gestures, you can communicate, the translation machine works well, and if that doesn't work, you can ask a passing Korean for help.
But is this enough? Are you satisfied with just saying "gudasai"? No, if you can communicate properly, your trip will be much more enjoyable.
Then, the quality of travel changes.

As the title suggests, this book is about practicing Japanese while traveling.
This book is composed of two volumes: a “book to read before departure” and a “book to read when you arrive” containing information you will need upon arrival.
You can look at the “Book to Preview” starting two weeks before departure, and when you leave, you can easily take out the “Book to Go and Look at” and put it in your bag.
The author, who lives locally, has included vivid Japanese language and travel information he has acquired while living and traveling.
This book contains a detailed compilation of 24 patterns that apply in various situations and 40 field simulations.
The charm of this book is that it is filled with travel tips and expression tips collected by the author, not limited to language.
The author, Sen, wrote this book thoroughly from a traveler's perspective.
For readers planning a trip to Japan, this book will be a great choice to enhance the enjoyment of your trip.
